My 2009 RAM 5500 SLT QC will soon be here!!

Just wondering if anyone knows where a guy can purchase a kit to mount a 3500 dually bed onto the C/C? I already have a brand new matching color bed so now I just need a way to bolt it on. I have decided to just live with the 4" gap between the cab and the bed that will exist. Seeing that the frame and the bed base are both flat it shouldn't be too hard to mount that thing on there (I hope).

Also, does anyone know if Magna or any aftermarket co. will have an optional limited slip available for that new front axle? It really helps having all the tires pulling when I am on less that solid ground pulling my equipment. See pics below.

My other plans are to pull all the goodies that will tranfer over from my 2007 5.9L and install them in the new 5500.
